Lima, January 20, 2017

Messrs.,

Superintendencia del Mercado de Valores – SMV

Present. -

Reference:  Southern Gas Pipeline Project

Dear Sirs:

In relation to the participation of our subsidiary Negocios de Gas S.A. in the Gasoducto Sur Peruano S.A. ("GSP"), concessionaire of the project "Improvement to the Energy Security of the Country and Development of the Peruvian Southern Gas Pipeline" (the "Project"), we report as a Relevant Information Communication the following:

  • In the last weeks, GSP has been working to accomplish the financial closing of the Project;
  • As of today, we note that the financial closing of the Project will not occur before January 23, 2017, the due date provided for such effect in the GSP Concession Contract. Pursuant to this agreement, the failure of GSP to comply with this obligation entitles the Grantor to terminate the contract;
  • As communicated on November 25, 2016 as a Relevant Information Communication, in the event of termination of the Concession Contract for causes attributable to the Concessionaire, the Grantor shall carry out a bidding process for the Concession, with GSP having the right to receive the amount obtained from said auction, being the minimum amount to receive 72.25% of the Net Book Value;
  • On the other hand, under the terms of the Concession Contract, the termination of said agreement for the above-mentioned breach results in the execution of a Performance Guarantee of such agreement, which amounts to US$ 262,500,000 (two hundred sixty-two million five hundred thousand dollars), of which Negocios de Gas S.A. is responsible for 20%. This amount is equivalent to US$ 52,500,000 (fifty-two-million five hundred thousand dollars);

Management estimates that a significant percentage of the investment made in GSP could be recovered within an estimated maximum term of 3 years.

Sincerely,
